A 60-year-old disabled grandmother in North Parramatta, Australia, might have been strangled to death by an intruder had it not been for the heroic intervention of her pit bull, Caesar.
On Aug. 23, Susan Bandera awoke at around 4 a.m. to find a man with his hands around her throat, violently assaulting her. Luckily, Caesar entered her bedroom in time and defended his owner, biting her assailant several times.
